Chapter 1651: The Wayblocker
1651
The man who came out of the grass, dressed a little shabby, looked like he was about sixty years old, he pressed a whip in his hand, and looked at Xu Taiping's car as he walked.
The old man did not speak, but drove the sheep around the car.
At this time, Zhou Yue'e also stepped out of the car.
"From the city?" asked the old man, in their native language.
"Well, I went to teach in An'an Village. Are you from the Poor Village?" asked Zhou Yue'e.
Hearing this, the old man showed a simple and simple smile on his face, nodded and walked to the back of the car, patted the trunk door, and said, "There's something good in it, right?"
"If there are any good things, they are all for students!" Zhou Yue'e said, walked to Xu Taiping's side and said, "Hurry up and let everyone get in the car, otherwise it will be too late to arrive in a while." ”
"Hmm!" Xu Taiping nodded, glanced at the old man who was still hovering behind the car, and didn't say anything, but asked Chu Tian and the others to get in the car quickly.
Chu Tian and the others almost vomited at this time, and they all returned to the car together.
The car started again, and as soon as it started, it stopped again.
The car paused violently, causing the few people who had just vomited and didn't have much strength to hit their heads directly on the seats in front of them, letting out a scream.
"What's going on?!" Xu Taiping frowned and stood up and looked ahead.
I saw that in front of the car, the old man who was driving the sheep before was standing there gracefully.
Zhou Yue'e frowned and stood up.
The driver opened the window and shouted. "Get out of the way, old man. ”
The old man glanced at the car lightly, and then raised three fingers.
"Give me thirty dollars. The old man said in somewhat stiff Mandarin.
Thirty bucks?
The people in the car were stunned for a moment, is this blocking the road and asking for money?
Zhou Yue'e, who was in the car, walked to the front of the car with some annoyance, and shouted to the old man outside, "These are here to teach, to help the poor village, you quickly get out of the way." ”
"Do they need the thirty dollars from the city, give me thirty dollars, or I won't leave." The old man said.
"You said you are crazy about money, I am the women's director of Xidou Township, you quickly get out of the way for me. Zhou Yue'e gritted her teeth and said.
"Don't give money, don't go. The old man said, and sat down on the ground.
"People are going to help in Anqiao Village, why are you like this!" Zhou Yue'e said angrily.
"It's not for me, it's my business. The old man said.
"Let's give them money, we don't have time to spend here. The driver said.
"Give it to him. Xu Taiping said, to be honest, he doesn't like this kind of behavior, but people don't want much, and now it's in the wilderness, and he has to go to Anqiao Village at eight o'clock in a while, so he can't waste time here.
A teacher from Jiangyuan University, who was accompanying the group, took out thirty yuan from his pocket and handed it to Zhou Yue'e.
"I'm really sorry. Zhou Yue'e said apologetically, took the money, got out of the car, and then walked to the car and handed the thirty yuan to the old man.
The old man who got the money smiled and stepped aside, and then the minibus started and headed in the direction of Anqiao Village.
The atmosphere on the car was a little dignified, and everyone didn't expect that before they arrived at Anshan Village, they would encounter people blocking the road and asking for money.
Some people say that poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people, which is just a joke in the eyes of many people, but when they really go to the place of poor mountains and bad waters and meet such people, they feel that this may be really a bit right.
"Do you know why the road can't come in now?" Zhou Yue'e looked at Xu Taiping and said helplessly.
"Because of the villagers?" Xu Taiping asked.
"A few years ago, I planned to open the road to come in, but according to the plan, I had to demolish a lot of houses along the road, and I had to move a few graves, and the villagers said that this would affect the feng shui of the village, so I didn't demolish it, if I didn't demolish it, the road would have to go around a long way, so this plan was stranded. Zhou Yue'e said.
"The compensation is not in place, is it?" asked Xu Taiping.
"Where it is not in place, a broken cowshed can have a compensation of 20,000 yuan, people just don't want it, and you can't do it. Zhou Yue'e said.
"Don't want to give money?" Xu Taiping asked in surprise.
"Otherwise, how can you say that the poor mountains and bad waters come out of the people. But now it's okay, most of the young people in the village have gone out to work, and there are only some old people and children left. Zhou Yue'e said.
"Understood!" Xu Taiping nodded.
The car continued to bump all the way to the poor village.
Finally, at half past eight in the morning, the car successfully drove to the entrance of Anshan Village.
The village party secretary, the village director, who got the news in advance, and the people in the village with a vote were already waiting at the entrance of the village.
The minibus stopped slowly, and then, under the leadership of Zhou Yue'e, Xu Taiping and others walked down from the car.
"Secretary Lin, Director Zhao. Zhou Yue'e said hello to the village party secretary and the village director.
The village party secretary and the village director looked like they were in their forties, with dark skin, and they looked like they were working in the fields.
"You're here!" said Secretary Lin with a smile on his face, "We've been waiting for you for a long time." These are from the city, right?"
"We are from Jiangyuan University in Jiangyuan City!" Xu Taiping said.
"Jiangyuan City, big city, big city, big guy go to the village to rest, right?" asked Secretary Lin.
"No need for this, take us to the village primary school, and give some of the things we brought to the students first, by the way, are the students there?" Xu Taiping asked.
"It's all here, it's all here, I heard that someone is going to come to teach, the students are happy!" Secretary Lin said.
"Where is the primary school?" asked Xu Taiping.
"It's over there, it's more than a hundred meters away, but the road is a bit small, and the car can't drive up, so you can only walk up!" Secretary Lin said.
"Then let's take a look at the things in the car. Xu Taiping said.
"No problem, no problem, come, let's help move things together!" Secretary Lin greeted, and then, a group of people walked to the back of the minibus under the leadership of Secretary Lin.
Xu Taiping also took people from Jiangyuan University to the back of the car, and then, some people took luggage, some people took aid, and the group walked in the direction of the primary school.
Chu Tian pushed his two large suitcases of luggage and walked forward with difficulty.
Because she was going to be here for a week, she really brought a lot of things, a box for clothes or something, and a box for cosmetics.
For Chu Tian, even if he comes to teach, he must have a quality of life.
Xu Taiping brought a schoolbag with some clothes and some other things in it, and he carried it on his back.
"Won't you help me too?" Chu Tian pushed the two boxes, looked at Xu Taiping, who was relaxed, and said dissatisfiedly.
"I told you not to bring so many things. If you want to bring it, you have to carry it yourself. Xu Taiping walked forward without looking back.
"Bastard!" Chu Tian gritted his teeth, and finally insisted on moving forward.
Soon, an elementary school appeared in front of the group.
The elementary school is only three stories tall and does not occupy a large area, and in front of the house is an open space overgrown with weeds and two basketball hoops that have been badly corroded and seem to shatter when they are hit.
There are five words hanging on the top of the elementary school.
Anqiao Village Primary School.
"Are all the students in our primary school in the same class?" Xu Taiping asked.
"Well, it's all a unified class, the youngest is eight years old, the oldest is sixteen years old, because there is only one teacher, so they are put together in class. Secretary Lin on the side said.
Xu Taiping nodded, if there are only twelve students, this is really needed to ensure that educational resources are not wasted to the greatest extent.
As Xu Taiping and the others arrived at the school playground, those who helped with the things also came to the playground.
Boxes were placed on the playground, and these boxes contained stationery, as well as milk, bread, ham sausages, instant noodles and other things.
Everything was stacked on top of each other as if it were a hill.
"Take inventory. Xu Taiping said to a teacher from Jiangyuan University next to him.
The teacher nodded, then walked over to the hill and took stock.
Things are being counted here, and at the entrance of the school, villagers are coming one after another.
Most of the villagers are elderly, and of course, there are still a few young people, in their twenties and thirties, but there are very few of them.
These people gathered in the playground, craned their necks to stare at the people from Jiangyuan University.
The people from Jiangyuan University were already seated at this time, and the playground had been set up before, and several stools were visited, and the people from Jiangyuan University sat on these stools, and they gathered around them, and from time to time they could hear these villagers talking in their local language, and then some of them let out laughter.
"Are all the students here?" asked Xu Taiping.
"Eleven came, and one didn't come!" Secretary Lin pointed to a group of people standing not far away.
Xu Taiping glanced at the group of people and found that almost everyone was thin and dark, wearing school uniforms that they didn't know when.
"You're here!" said a man in his fifties as he walked out of the school building excitedly.
"Let me introduce to you, this is the principal of our village primary school, Lin Shenghu. Secretary Lin introduced.
"Hello principal!" Xu Taiping nodded with the principal, and then shook hands.
The principal's hands are very rough, and he looks like he has done a lot of work.
"Thank you for your hard work. Lin Shenghu held Xu Taiping's hand with both hands and said, "Our elementary school, to be honest, is really missing too many things, and these things you sent are enough for everyone to use for a while." Thank you so much, and I thank you on behalf of all the students. ”
"This is all as it should be!" Xu Taiping said with a smile.
At this time, the person in charge of counting the supplies from Jiangyuan University came over with a frown.
"Director Xu, I just counted, there are two cartons of milk missing, and one box of notebooks is missing. Said the man who counted the supplies.
"What?"
